At the same time, the town of Kangxi.

In the quiet of the night, in the faint moonlight, suspicious black shadows moved rapidly in the alleys. These black shadows converged around the ancient mansion from all directions, and there were about twenty or thirty people in the shadows. They seemed to be watching something, clinging to the wall and hiding in the shadows.

Suddenly, two people left the base of the wall and threw out a triangular hook to hook the head of the high courtyard wall of the ancient mansion. In the quiet and windless night, Ding Lingdang's voice was abrupt and terrifying. The two of them stood on end in shock, and they did not dare to immediately withdraw the triangular hooks they had thrown, nor did they dare to move, and nervously listened to the movement.

The sound of the bells soon stopped, and the surroundings became quiet again, and they couldn't hear any movement in the ancient mansion. As the two of them considered whether to retreat, a dark figure approached, made a gesture, and retreated.

The two men were ordered, one tugging at the end of the rope that connected the triangular hook, and the other climbing the rope to the courtyard wall. It didn't take much time, but the sound of the bell that had just been touched made them feel uneasy.

The man who had gone up to the courtyard wall crouched on the wall for a moment, there was no sound of bells, no footsteps of the night watchman, and he could hear his own breathing very clearly. He should have jumped in, but it was too quiet to make people suspicious. Aware of the danger, he turned back to warn him. But, someone couldn't wait, and just as he turned around, he just climbed the wall. He made a swift move, but the man ignored him, and motioned at him, silently calling him a coward, and then covered his face with his veil and jumped into the courtyard, making a very small noise when his feet hit the ground.

Nothing happened, and the ancient mansion was still quiet, and no one seemed to notice an intruder.

The man who wanted to warn him also doubted his own judgment, saying that the operation had already begun, and he could not give up halfway. So he coded the others and jumped into the courtyard as well. It was determined that the two people who went in first were safe, and four more people entered one after another. They stalked carefully in pairs and managed to evade a four-man patrol. By this point, they were relieved. There were no traps, they thought, just poor guards. Even so, they did not forget the principle of being cautious, moved very carefully, and climbed over the fence into a small courtyard. This is where Hao lives.

Some people took the wind, and some people pried open the mosquito-proof screen windows and turned into the house. Suddenly, "Let's go, I'm in the middle of the plan." The man who climbed into the window shouted and jumped out of the window.

The sound of arrows and feathers broke through the air, and the sound of arrows hitting the human body was particularly loud.

More than a dozen torches lit up in different positions instantly, and someone shouted, "The target is Young Master Hao, go quickly, go and protect Young Master Hao, leave it to us here." Then, a team of six stopped the intruders and fought, while two other teams approached from different directions with torches.

Later, there were men in black who broke into the ancient mansion. They chose to lurk, so they thought they hadn't been discovered yet, and they targeted the point where the torches in the ancient mansion had gathered, and moved cautiously. They had expected to find their target tonight, but what awaited them were soldiers in armor and swords and guns.

No one yelled, and at this moment when either you die or I die, all the two sides do is fight silently. Well-trained regular soldiers face off against dead soldiers who are accustomed to assassinations, kidnappings, etc., each with its own strengths and weaknesses. However, the ancient mansion had archers in control of the overall situation, which shortened the time of this fight by at least half.

When the battle inside the mansion began, there was also a battle of life and death outside the mansion. In the inner and outer battlefields, there are no people shouting, only people who are focused on killing each other.

Qing Shu sat on the edge of the kang, guarding the four sleeping boys. This is Luo Xiaorong's room. On weekdays, Luo Xiaorong lives with Qingyang, so although this room is complete, it has been basically empty. Tonight, however, it came in handy.

When Gu Ruixing told her that it might not be peaceful recently, and asked her to take Qingyang and them to live in a courtyard, and they had to live in a courtyard where they didn't live on weekdays, she knew that something big was going to happen. She asked why. Gu Ruixing said that he didn't know the reason, but only said that this was explained by Zhou Boyan before leaving. He also asked Qingshu not to worry, saying that this was just a precautionary measure just in case, and maybe nothing.

Qing Shu understood. Whether you know or don't know, Gu Ruixing won't sue her or anything. At night, she temporarily told them that when the four of them were going to live together tonight, the four of them happily discussed the game they wanted to play together before going to bed.

Indeed, the four of them who got together before going to bed were playing like crazy, and they almost collapsed the kang during the fight. If she hadn't come to call them to sleep if she hadn't lived in the wing, they might have been fighting for a while. After falling asleep, the naughty headache finally stopped the adults from feeling a headache, and they all looked like well-behaved and pleasing boys.

Now the qiē outside can't affect them, and they sleep peacefully. They didn't know that Qingshu's sister woke up at the slightest sound, and she came over to guard them personally as soon as possible.

The spear and bow and arrow were placed within Qing Shu's reach. Xiaojuan grabbed a wooden stick and sat very close to the door. Gu Ruixing said that even if something happened, he could keep the Qingshu sisters and brothers well, and no villain could get close to them. Luo San said that with their black and white guards and eagle guards, no one could hurt the masters.

Qingshu believes in them, and at the same time understands that there is a word in the world called "what if". So, just in case, her spear and bow left the practice room and appeared here. When there is an emergency, even if she can't play a big role, she can drag the enemy for a second, and she can always buy some time for her younger brothers.

When she learned that there was an intruder, she thought that the intruder's target was herself, and she didn't think about Hao at all. She looked at Hao's sleeping face and couldn't help but sigh. She was thinking, when the general's father decided to rescue Hao and prepare to take Hao as a righteous son, I don't know if he ever thought about this situation? She laughed at herself, if she really reached the time of desperation, if they still had their lives, could she take the old and young of the house to Xichang Kingdom, and then find the emperor of Xichang Kingdom to ask for favors?

While she was thinking wildly, Steward Gu personally came to report, "It's over, and the young lady can rest in peace." ”

Qing Shu walked out of the door, "Is there a living mouth?" ”

Steward Gu's face was not good, and he replied, "Lord Gu once ordered that no one should be left alive. "Therefore, that group of well-trained officers and soldiers really did not leave a single mouth alive, and not only killed all the intruders, but also killed all the men in black found outside the mansion.

Tonight, the guards and family members of the palace do not need to rush ahead to fight the intruders head-on, their duty is to protect the master and the women and children in the palace. The officers and soldiers who participated in the battle were all secretly transferred by Gu Ruixing. Qing Shu was suspicious, why didn't Gu Ruixing let him live? There is a living mouth, and you can find out the manipulators behind the scenes through guò interrogation, right? Could it be that he knew who it was in the morning? How is this possible?

At dawn, the ancient mansion was as usual, and there was nothing unusual in the eyes of the uninformed.

Hao fell and sat on the ground of the courtyard with red eyes, looking like he was about to cry, but he was trying to hold back his crying, which made people look so pitiful and pitiful.

Xiaojuan hurriedly squatted in front of him, "The young master doesn't cry, the young master doesn't cry, is it okay for the slave to carry you back to the house?" ”

Xiao Yu coaxed softly, "The young master is a man in Miss's heart, and a man doesn't cry." The slave called the first year of junior high and asked him to show the young master. If the young master is injured somewhere, the slave and maid will go to report to the housekeeper and ask for a doctor. Now, will the slave help you up? ”

Hao just shook his head, tears rolling in his eyes, and sniffed pitifully.

Xiaojuan and Xiaoyu were very distressed, and rushed to ask if it was too painful and so on. How did they know that while they were circling around Hao wholeheartedly, three people crept behind them into the wing room where Qing Shu lived.

successfully entered Qingshu's house, Qingyang, Chen Qiaojiang and Luo Xiaorong wanted to high-five each other with a triumphant smile, but they heard someone "boo" in their ears.

The three of them were shocked, only to find out that it was Xiaoya.

The little girl puffed out her little face and whispered, "Miss is not feeling well, and she is resting on the bed." Young masters, hurry out and don't disturb Miss. ”

It was only when they heard that my sister was not feeling well, so they wanted to come and have a look. How do you know that Xiaojuan's girl can't tell where her sister is uncomfortable, and she also stops them from seeing her sister. Fortunately, they were smart enough to find a way to get in on their own.

Qingyang looked worriedly in the direction of the inner room door, but they couldn't see his sister's person at the angle they were standing. So he also asked in a low voice, "Why is my sister uncomfortable?" Is it a stomachache? Or a headache? Did you invite Dr. Zhou to come and see? ”

Chen Qiaojiang glanced at Qingyang, and then stretched out a pair of "clutches" to the little girl who opened her mouth and was about to drive people again, grabbed Xiaoya's double buns, and threatened in a low voice, "Stinky girl, dare to stare at Young Master Ben, see how Young Master Ben cleans you up." ”

The little girl's hair was painful, and she didn't dare to shout loudly, but she was aggrieved and wanted to hide to the side. But the double bun was pulled by someone, and the more you dodge, the more painful it will be. With teary eyes, she immediately turned her eyes for help in the direction of Qingyang.

However, Qingyang couldn't care about saving her at this time, and had already tiptoed into the inner room with Luo Xiaorong.

It's hot outside, but it's cool inside. The lilac bed tent was put away, and Qing Shu's sleeping face lying on the bed facing outward immediately entered Qingyang and Luo Xiaorong's sight.

The two of them walked to the bed, not daring to make a move. Qingyang stretched out his hand, gently put it on his sister's forehead, and then pressed his hand on his forehead again.

Luo Xiaorong stared at his series of movements tightly and asked in a low voice, "Is it hot?" ”

Qingyang felt the same warmth on their foreheads, so he shook his head with relief.

Luo Xiaorong also looked relieved. He asked, "Shall we go?" ”

Qingyang looked a little hesitant and quickly shook his head.

Suddenly, there was such a scene. Qing Shu fell asleep on the bed, and Qingyang took Chen Qiaojiang and them to sit on the ground under the bed and read a book. Chen Qiaojiang is willing to read quietly, and the reason is naturally in the book. The books they read were not the homework books that Mr. Lu taught them, nor the books they were learning, but the story books written by Qingshu for them.

Xiao Juan and Xiao Yu looked at each other, wanting to let the young masters out, but they couldn't find a reason to let them out. And Xiaoya, sitting at the door with a small face, glared at Chen Qiaojiang from time to time.

Qingshu, who hadn't slept all night because of insomnia and closed his eyes at dawn, woke up, and when he saw the scene under the bed, he thought he was dreaming and stayed for a long time.
